WebCord is an “alternative client” for Discord, although it’s just running the Discord webpage in electron. Recently it updated its electron version so it supports sharing audio as well as video.
I tried it out today on mint (x11, pulseaudio) and it works flawlessly.
I still have major problems with presence detection and notifications (in Webcord. Love it on Deck tho.) Could be me. Vencord is a project I just stumbled on and it seems really solid in just about every area. Check out those plugins.
I would caution anyone using a client mod like that, since it is technically against Discord’s terms of service. To be fair I’ve never heard of them banning anyone for that, but it’s worth noting. Webcord is generally a much safer option.
You’re technically right but discord really doesn’t care as long as you’re not doing anything harmful with the client mods. Big YouTubers like No Text To Speech publicly promote and use Vencord and never get banned, I think his server is even a discord partner.
And Vencord has a desktop client “Vesktop” which works like Webcord, with audio in stream too. No presence detection but notifications have worked for me
Ive been using armcord with the vencord base, it’s super solid and not as resource intensive.
